Custom jewelry raises the appeal of handmade jewelry by a notch or two. As
Agalil's objective is to help you get the best out of handmade jewelry, we are
introducing services for you to reap the benefits of handmade custom
jewelry. It is easier said than done though...
The Appeal of Handmade Custom Jewelry
Times sure have changed. People used to crave fitting in with the crowd. Now,
they can't wait to stand out.
The virtue of efficiency and the pursuit of maximum profits naturally lead
to mass production. Most things around us are one of millions released out of
factories. Duplications and cloning do make us one common people and that's a good
thing. But they also make us... common.
Drowned in sameness. Lost in commonality. The suppressed desire to be found,
to animate in full colour in the backdrop of a greyed out faceless crowd, leads to
pursuits of things, anything, existing in small quantities.
In other words, the new age premium quality coveted and desired is rarity.
Handcrafted jewelry is characterized as jewelry in small quantities. A pair of
hands is never in the races with hordes of machines.
Possession of rare and unique objects helps to keep our sanity in this overly
homogenous world.
However, the quest is half-completed at this point. One more quality will
make it whole;
Individuality.
Ownership of rarity makes you feel 'special'.
Ownership of individuality tells the world who 'you are'.
Embrace both and the message is complete: "You are special"!
And that is the message Agalil Custom Jewelry declares.
What and for Whom
Presently, only Agalil's range is available as customized jewelry. If there are
further demands, we shall discuss with associate designers to add their designs
to our custom jewelry service as well.
Customized jewelry is a membership service for Agalil Members only.
If you are not a member yet, please join our membership program before
enquiring about our custom jewelry service. It is easy to join. Of course,
learn
more about the Agalil Membership first.
Customizing jewelry in a face to face situation is pretty straight forward. To customize jewelry through the internet and emails is tricky. It can
even be a minefield.
You see, custom jewelry is made according to design details provided by
you. We are the crafters. You are the designer!
That revelation kind of made you jump off your seat, didn't it?
Yep, it's a spooky idea. More so for us, actually.
Very often, the final outcome is not what was envisioned.
If you had provided design details and just don't like the jewelry made, who
will you be unhappy with? I don't know about you but we'll sure blame the
crafters.
We are trying to build long term relationships here. Years of goodwill can
disappear in a moment of misunderstanding.
The last thing we want is to have our good intentions turn into bad outcomes.
Handcrafted Custom Jewelry through Upgrades and Minor Modifications
Upgrades
Crafting of Agalil Jewelry is based upon a stringent set of quality policies.
Several options may meet our quality requirements. In this situation, we shall
present the different options with the lowest price option as default.
If you want to go for better options, you can do so through upgrading.
This is probably as clear as mud but don't worry, all shall be
clarified.
Hey, wait a second! I can explain this better now. It's like buying computers
on the internet. Take DELL for example;
you can buy this wonderful, fully functional computer system for $999. If you
want a faster processor, upgrade with another $83. If a 160GB hard disk won't
cut it for you, upgrade to 250GB for another $69.
Gosh! How uncanny. DELL and we have the same concept on this.
Minor Modifications
Designing from scratch and sweeping changes are crises waiting to happen.
Modifications such as change of
colours
types of beads
parts
sizes
are less prone to misinterpretations. Yet, they effectively enable you to
customize and personalize the handcrafted custom jewelry to represent you - your preferences
and your style.
Options for upgrades and modifications differ according to the category of
jewelry.
At the moment, the following are available as customized jewelry:
You need to have purchased at least one piece of Agalil Jewelry (Rings, Toe rings or
Child Rings) before progressing to custom handmade jewelry.
We need you to have something in your hands to refer to.
Imagining how your
handmade custom jewelry will look like through your computer monitor is less reliable.
To cater to your needs for customized jewelry, we will keep all Agalil
designs on this website. We will not erase older designs.
If you have bought any Agalil Jewelry or are going to, keep them around for
reference purposes if nothing else. Every piece of Agalil Jewelry will help you
with customizing jewelry with us.
